Publisher's Note
David Sanders, Jim Tucker, and Andy Peterson had taken off on a regular "out-and-back", delivering and picking up packages for FedEx's next-day service. They had one jumpseat passenger, an off-duty colleague who they assumed was simply taking advantage of the FedEx perk allowing virtually all employees to ride the company jets for free. The shock came twenty minutes later, before the plane had reached its normal cruising altitude. The lone passenger attacked the pilots with hammers and a spear gun. He'd had his diabolical plan in the works for months: By crashing the plane into the Federal Express Memphis hub, he'd ruin the company, which he felt had treated him unfairly. With superhuman strength fueled by sheer fury, the attacker struck the pilots again and again. What he didn't count on was the skill and intelligence of the pilots. While Sanders and Peterson tried to stop the relentless battering, copilot Tucker swung the aircraft into dangerous flight maneuvers in an attempt to literally knock the man off his feet. Hijacked tells the true story of three men who became heroes. Reverberations from the ordeal will echo indefinitely for the men and their families - as the story itself will captivate every reader.

Industry Reviews
"The gripping record of a 'routine' Federal Express fast-freight flight between Memphis and San Jose in April 1994 that went horribly wrong."
Lehmann-Haupt

    The true story of three airmen fighting for their lives against a suicidal foe, who is determined to kill thousands of their friends and co-workers in 1994.

    I simply could put this book down! A riveting page-turner that should be on the bookshelf of every commerical pilot.
